I shipped my car from Champaign IL to Seattle WA and the experience was top notch. They did a great job in the communication and my driver took great care of my car. He even helped jump start it when its to too cold that the battery refused to start. The car arrived in time and in great shape. So, totally worth the 5 stars rating 😍
I have used ship a car direct now for the second time and both times everything about the experience was excellent. David was extremely helpful on both occasions and each time the car was picked up and delivered exactly on time in the exact same condition
as when picked up.
If I could rate them 10 stars I would!
Awesome experience with Jennifer. Shipped a car from Los Angeles, CA to Champaign, IL. Car arrived in 3 days in perfect condition. The driver was amazing, great communication! Initially I got bids from other companies, but they seem very shady. Ship a Car Direct was very honest, constantly communicated with me via email or text, ...and made a stressful process very easy. Thank you Jennifer! PS: The broker fee is standard across the industry; all brokers use the same marketplace system to find drivers so in the end, it's just about going with a person or company that you trust. Lots of brokers seem to be located NOT in the US; this company is in the US. Read more
